19. Again I say to you, that if two of you shall agree on the earth concerning any matter, whatsoever it may be that they shall ask, it shall come to them from my Father who is in the heavens.
20. For where two or three are gathered together unto my name, there am I in the midst of them.
21. Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? until seven times?
22. Jesus says to him, I say not to thee until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
23. For this cause the kingdom of the heavens has become like a king who would reckon with his bondmen.
24. And having begun to reckon, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25. But he not having anything to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and his children, and everything that he had, and that payment should be made.
26. The bondman therefore falling down did him homage, saying, Lord, have patience with me and I will pay thee all.
27. And the lord of that bondman, being moved with compassion, loosed him and forgave him the loan.
28. But that bondman having gone out, found one of his fellow-bondmen who owed him a hundred denarii. And having seized him, he throttled him, saying, Pay me if thou owest anything.
29. His fellow-bondman therefore, having fallen down at his feet, besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.
